194. A little help from my friends
Well, this has been a crazy week. The first podcast. A fellow blogger saying goodbye. The birth of ChictopiaTV. I have a hundred ideas running around my head like children with Pixy Stix, but they'll have to wait as I head to Anacortes for What the Heck Fest, Round 2.
But before I go I'd like to ask for all of your help. I have recently purchased a sterling silver money clip, and want to transition the rest of my walleted goods to a card wallet. The question is - which one?
I could go the obvious and established route with a Burberry, or take a slightly less travelled trip to Nice Collective. But then I thought why not ask you, my stylish and informed readers?
So please do add comments or send emails or just think really hard at me about card wallets that have caught your eye, and I will repay you with sunshine and mojitos.
Have a great weekend.
maybe this is crazy. but those are supper easy to make! OR check out etsy. you will probably find a lot!! and its always nice to support indie designers :)
good luck

I will share my solution, something that has brought me many compliments over the years:
A silver cigarette case.
It's the unexpected use that catches people's eyes, but I'm always worried that a policeman will mistake the metal for a gun and shoot me when I get pulled over for speeding.

I'm going to be useless in this regard, as I love my wallet, and am a girl. I'll leave it to the informed and stylish boys.

A wallet for me is the most important accessory a man owns. Maybe that says something about me. I'm fortunate to have two wallets that I love, a Paul Smith classically striped wallet and a black CDG wallet. I also have a leather card holder which is my everyday wallet because its so thin.
I love the idea of using a silver cigarette case. I might steal that one. Thanks enc!
Etsy is certainly worth a worth. I say look everywhere until ou find the right one for you. I will keep an eye out and send any suitabe links your way.

I tried etsy but couldn't find anything that quite suit the bill. Links are always welcome.
I have a pewter cigarette case, but find it's a little bulkier than I want in a wallet.
And I'd love a Paul Smith...but I can't pull the trigger on a 78 pound piece of leather (that's money, not weight.)

LV has 2 options. one has several clear pockects for cards, but not cash. the other is a small card carrier with room for cash. both are under 200.
